Product Description
The Steelite Ink Crackle Grey Coupe Plate is a large-format dinner plate finished in a distinctive crackle-effect grey glaze. Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, each plate measures 300mm in diameter and is produced to Steelite's commercial durability standards, making it a practical choice for operators who want a strong aesthetic without sacrificing serviceability.
Alumina vitrified ceramic is a well-proven material in busy food service environments. It resists chipping better than standard vitrified china, holds up well through repeated machine washing, and maintains its surface finish under daily commercial use. The crackle glaze finish on this range is consistent across the batch, which matters when you are covering multiple covers with matching tableware night after night.
From a practical service standpoint, the coupe profile — with its minimal rim — gives chefs a clean, open canvas that works well for plated fine dining, tasting menus, and contemporary restaurant formats. The neutral grey tone recedes rather than competes, which tends to suit bold or colourful plating styles particularly well.
- Coupe profile suits contemporary plating styles across a range of cuisine types
- Crackle glaze finish adds visual interest without distracting from the food
- Alumina vitrified ceramic provides practical durability for commercial dishwasher cycles
- Plates stack cleanly, helping to keep back-of-house storage organised during service
- Consistent glaze finish across the pack supports matching across large cover counts
At 300mm, these are large dinner plates best suited to main course or sharing-style presentations. They are well suited to independent restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and any operation running a contemporary or fine dining format where tableware is part of the overall guest experience. For operators needing a smaller side or starter plate in the same range, alternatives within the Ink Crackle collection are worth exploring.
If you are building a tableware specification for a new opening or refreshing an existing set, our team is happy to talk through quantities, mix-and-match options within the range, or suitability for your specific service style.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes. Alumina vitrified ceramic is a standard material for commercial tableware precisely because it withstands the heat and repeated cycling of commercial dishwashers. The crackle glaze is a fired finish rather than a surface coating, so it is not at risk from machine washing under normal commercial conditions.
- A common rule of thumb is two to three times your seated cover count for dinner plates, allowing for plates in use, plates being washed, and a buffer during peak service. For a 40-cover restaurant, that typically means stocking 80 to 120 plates. Ordering in multiples of this pack of 12 makes it straightforward to build up to the right quantity.
- At 300mm, this is firmly in large dinner plate territory and works well as a main course plate in a fine dining or contemporary restaurant context. It also suits sharing-style presentations where the open coupe profile and neutral glaze help frame the dish. If you need a smaller plate for starters or sides within the same Ink Crackle range, it is worth checking whether smaller sizes are available to keep your tableware consistent across courses.
